This mod is the spiritual successor to @Gaveliere's excellent, but no longer functional, Anthro Characters mod. This mod continues where Gaveliere left off, deriving a far more complete and functional mod from the foundation Gaveliere created thanks to many contributions from the community over the course of many months. This mod overhauls virtually every NPC in the game, creating a wholly re-imagined Stardew Valley experience for those who enjoy anthropomorphic animal characters.

Gaveliere has returned to continue his work on this mod. He and I are working on a very big update to the mod to add a bit more diversity and more options to the mod. If you've enjoyed the mod please consider buying Gav a coffee at: https://ko-fi.com/gaveliere

Thanks to Rydel the mod has once again been updated to work with Longevity! To install first install Longevity, then Anthro Characters Continued, and finally the compatibility patch.
You can download the patch here:https://drive.google.com/open?id=1s2gtAnsOlu1w_aP4IkSv5ZM9WrN7vErR
(NOTE: Not compatible with the Female->Male Genderswaps yet)

We now have options for marriageable female to male genderswaps for ACC! You can find the links for them below.

ninjakaami has been working on an anthro children mod you can find here.

This mod is now compatible with Siv's Marriage Mod. Download the appropriate patch file below and overwrite after installing ACC and SMM.*NOTE*
This patch will likely only work with older versions of SMM for the time being.

There are alternate versions of Alex, Emily, Demetrius, Evelyn and Robin available in the Alternate Character Designs file for those who prefer them.

If using Content Patcher, download [CP] Anthro Characters Continued. (Is not fully updated to the current version, but functional)
A 1.2 legacy version is available for those who choose not to update.

Female to Male Genderswap Installation Instructions:
Just download the ACC Female to Male Genderswaps file, extract it with a .zip file extractor such as 7zip, then follow the instructions packaged within.ONLY USE ONE OF THE INCLUDED SWAPS AT A TIME! USING MULTIPLE AT ONCE WILL CAUSE INCONSISTENCIES.

I'm sure I'm missing people; please let me know in the comments so I can add your name to the project~​

I've added this mod to the Stardew Valley Nexus to increase exposure and hopefully boost the chances of getting some of the small-scale work still needed done. It can be found over here. (I'm mostly making this post to prove that I'm the one who posted the mod over there, as my username is different on the Nexus).

I love Anthro Characters. Thank you very much.
I upload sprite I previously edited personally.
(Please advise me if there are any problems.)
and previously I have also edited "Cursors.ja-JP.xnb" (I'm Japanese ) , but it's not quite enough to be released (low quality ( ◞‸◟ ) )

Hi,

Do you mean you contributed to the mod? Did you help with Anthro Characters and want to be credited?

Or are you trying to help out with the mod currently, making or editing sprites? Sorry, I'm having trouble understanding.

Really glad to see this is being revived. Which small sprites happen to be missing from the mod? Like, what is thier file name and directory in the games files?

I think figuring that out will take time; even I don't know every little possible non-replaced sprite due to the game updating and the fact that multiple people worked on the mod so it's not always straightforward. Every once in awhile you'll run into a standalone scene where a character reverts. Shane has at least one I know where he falls face down for a scene; I need to find time to do a deep dive and dig them up, unless someone else does it first.

If you're using my cursors then Shane will not revert when falling over

Does that include his talking head sprite? If that's the case there's barely anything missing from the main mod despite 1.1 and 1.2, though I keep being paranoid whenever someone brings up a "problem" from the old mod forum. (I'm once again going off of someone's bug report rather than my own experience in actually finding anything incomplete myself, which I should learn by now is a mistake, heh)

Yup, the October 4th one is the one I've got packed in here. Okay I do have all the Shane sprites then, I'm just paranoid. I'm..not sure if there is still sprite work missing. That's the problem with pulling a bunch of different pieces out from different people; it's hard to know if everything is there without knowing each scene. (I also haven't been at my own computer in several days to just confirm on my own) I'm fairly confident there isn't actually anything missing at this point, I'm just going off of people using the wrong cursors files, ect. left over from the original post or overwriting on their own. It's amazing how many problems that old mod has caused...

I'm going to edit the main thread to ask people if they encounter missing stuff to report it rather than confirming anything is missing. Thanks again Roskii, my bad.

Hey, I was browsing through the games files after installing the mod to start tracking down some missing sprites, and I noticed that on Sandy's sprite, her wings are missing on the animation cycle for walking to the left. Here's a fixed version.

I finally got to my home PC and actually have access to XNB-node again! I've updated the main file and credited @ninjakaami and @HYODO for their contributions~ (and to Roskii for pointing out what I hadn't realized myself... >_>;; ) I'm about to do the same over at the Nexus.
